Back in the Good Old Days, when cars still looked cool...I HATE today’s nasty little econoboxes. When I win the lottery I’m going to have SUCH a car collection. I can waste so much time fantasizing about what I’d like to have.
My ‘rat city finds my free air museum to be a “public nuisance”. Be careful.
Ya, that '68 Cougar I had sure looked cool, but mechanically, it was a total POS. The retractable headlights would freeze shut in the winter, the sequencial tail lights would go bad because the trunk leaked and the little cam motor that ran the lights would burn out, the front suspension was crap, and you could watch the fenders rust. That is just the problems I can remember off the top of my head. I know there were more. I got rid of it when it was only 4 years old and never missed it a bit.
From a quality and mechanical standpoint, I'll take today's vehicles over any of those 'cool looking' cars of yesteryear.
My 2010 Mustang GT said that it would like to take issue with your statement. ;-) hehe
